GOOD MORNING SKA USERS. IT’S TUESDAY AND THAT MEANS IT’S TIME TO ARM YOURSELVES… WITH KNOWLEDGE!
Happy Holidays to all my readers and fans! The 12th Man is the best fanbase, but the Knowledge Seekers are a close 2nd! I hope the Spirit of the Season runs over each of you with all the force of a Russell Wilson stiff-arm. Does somebody have a gif of that play?
What a great weekend of football! A weekend filled with all sorts of wonderful statistics, just ripe for the copy/pasting. The Seahawks set a franchise record for total yards gained, on the road, against a defense which some had described as “good.” That should make for some interesting charts!
So without any further blah-blah, let’s get to the STATS!

What’s Changed?
Sound the trumpets! Blow the horn! Pluck the lute! We finally have accurate standings in the NFCW! For months my statistics have clearly shown that the Seattle Seahawks are the best team in the division. I mean seriously. They have the best offense, the best defense, the best quarterback AND the best running back? C’mon now!
And now, they have finally seized first place with a week left to play. Knowledge has NEARLY prevailed!
My Analysis:
The only thing standing in the way of decency and order is Jeff Fisher and his mustache of mystery. What secrets lie behind that twisted thicket of barbed wire and spittle? What lows will he stoop to in order to preserve his 7-9 streak? Only time will tell!
Meanwhile, the few Cardinal fans left who would dare to look upon my tables must be scratching their heads – wondering what their team is actually good at. Perhaps the can find themselves and take one last parting shot at Jim Harbaugh this weekend. Just remember: We were sweeping the Niners BEFORE it was cool!
And now, how about your feedback? Can you believe the Regular Season is almost over??
